[05-31-2024] Four People Killed Following Two-Vehicle Head-On Collision on Bonds Flat Road Four people were killed following a two-vehicle head-on collision in Tuolumne County on Friday afternoon, May 31, 2024. 

According to the California Highway Patrol, the crash happened around 5:09 p.m. on Bonds Flat Road. 

CHP said that the Chevrolet Silverado pickup truck, driven by 56-year-old Michael K. of Stockton, was traveling northbound on Bonds Flat Road at approximately 100 mph. Meanwhile, a woman, identified as 33-year-old Janelle H., was driving in the opposite direction in a Toyota Highlander. 

The driver of a Chevrolet unlawfully passed another vehicle over the double yellow lanes, resulting in a head-on collision with the Highlander. Because of the truck’s high speed, both vehicles could not avoid each other. 

The driver of the Toyota and the three people in the pickup truck were pronounced dead at the scene. 

Police identified the two passengers in the pickup truck as 66-year-old Donna Y. of Modesto and 65-year-old Cindi S.

Don’t Know What To Do After An Accident?

Your safety and rights depend on what you do next after an accident. Remember the following steps if you find yourself in one:

  • Check yourself for any injuries.
  • Stay on the scene, call 9-1-1, and wait for emergency responders.
  • Move your vehicle to the road shoulder if safe; turn on hazard lights.
  • Fully cooperate with law enforcement and stay until cleared to leave.
  • Document the scene and injuries with photos and videos.
  • Seek immediate medical attention.
  • Contact your insurance company and find a personal injury lawyer for legal advice.

What A Lawyer Can Do For You

Many victims put off calling a lawyer even if they sustain injuries after an accident. However, lawyers can help you in many ways. They can provide you with police reports, CCTV footage, and witness statements to strengthen your case. Your attorney will also negotiate with insurance companies to get you fair compensation. The best part is that they will do all of these things for you at no upfront cost. So if you’re injured in an accident, hire a personal injury attorney to recover medical bills, car repair costs, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
